The International Olympic Committee will decide by October which city will host the 2016 Summer Games. The finalists are Chicago, Madrid, Rio, and Tokyo. The design blog idsgn has the proposed logos for each finalist and some runners-up. Which design do you think is best? Link -via Buzzfeed

Nobody else is seeing the "hand turkey" in Madrid's design? You know, how you used to draw an outline of your hand and then make it into a turkey for Thanksgiving (US kids, anyway)? And yes, I see that red middle finger, too.

The Olympics are very...tight about the use of their name, logo, etc. Years ago, I used to participate in the "Olympics of the Mind" creative competitions. The Olympic people would not allow the use of the word "Olympic," even though there was no possibility of confusing the two competitions. So it became "Odyssey of the Mind." Let's see Homer challenge THAT.
